Last-mile delivery is evolving, and grocers are looking for more control over their customer experience, smarter ways to stay profitable, and technology that works for them—not the other way around. At #NGAshow2025, we had insightful conversations with industry leaders about what they need from delivery providers. One thing was clear: solutions must be flexible, seamless, and built with grocers in mind. A few things we discovered: - The rising importance of customization and branding in delivery - Why profitability remains a top concern for grocers - How technology should integrate effortlessly—not add complexity Read the full recap here ?? https://hubs.la/Q038_nly0

Not all last-mile delivery platforms are created equal. Some are built for speed, others for flexibility, and a few claim to do it all. But the real question is: does it work for your business? Before committing to a solution, take a step back and consider whether it aligns with your operational needs, supports your long-term goals, and enhances your customer experience rather than complicating it. A delivery platform isn’t just software—it’s a critical part of your business strategy. Make sure you’re asking the right questions before making a decision.

At The NGA Show we had the opportunity to connect with grocery industry leaders who are making a real impact. Led by our Co-Founder Salman Habib we explored the key pain points and expectations grocers have for last-mile delivery providers—from enhancing customer experience to optimizing operations and driving profitability. One thing was clear: grocers are looking for solutions that seamlessly integrate into their workflows, not just technology for technology’s sake. It was great to have meaningful discussions and learn directly from those shaping the future of grocery retail. We’re excited to continue these conversations and build solutions with grocers, for grocers.

The final stretch of delivery can make or break customer satisfaction, yet many businesses struggle with outdated processes, hidden costs, and scalability issues. Before committing to a platform, ask yourself: - Does it align with your business’s specific delivery needs? - Can it integrate seamlessly with your current systems? - Will it scale as your business grows? - Does it offer the support you need when things go wrong? - Will it enhance the customer experience with real-time tracking & flexibility?
